Spiced Cranberry-Mango Sauce

Servings: 6
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Good For: Dinner
Cuisine: Vegan

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 12-oz bag cranberries
  • 1 1/2 cup mango puree
  • 3/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 whole star anise
  • cloves
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • sprinkle lemon zest

 

Instructions:

  1. Rinse cranberries and make sure to remove any unwanted berries. 
  2. Next, add a cup of water to a saucepan on medium heat, along with star anise, clove, and cinnamon. Let this boil for about 5 minutes.
  3. In the meantime, blend mango for mango puree (fresh or thawed mango chunks both work well in this recipe).
  4. Remove any unwanted cloves and/or star anise in pot.
  5. Add cranberries, mango puree, maple syrup and lemon zest. 
  6. Lower heat and stir occasionally for about 10 minutes until mixture thickens.
  7. Take the back of your spoon and press any remaining cranberries until you reach desired consistency.
  8. Taste and adjust flavor as desired–more maple syrup for sweetener, more cinnamon for spice.

Note: Remove whole spices (star anise and clove) before serving. Alternatively, the spices can be boiled in a spice bag or spice/tea ball for easy removal. Sauce keeps in the fridge for a week. Freezer for a month.
